My passenger side axle was kinda stuck and when I got it loose this end cap was stuck in the steering knuckle. I got it off undamaged, but how secure is it supposed to be to the axle? Is it ok to reinstall?
Isn't that the wheel bearing dust cap? The knuckle is where it belongs. It may have a hole that needs to align with the wheel speed sensor.
yes and yes, it does. Assuming I'm remembering correctly, the ring area near the base of his thumb inserts into the knuckle and should be a tight fit. It doesn't go on the axle, it should be stuck to the knuckle. The speed sensor should be "looking" through the oval shaped hole so it can see the tone ring.
Thank you both for that information. I wasn’t sure if the cap was part of the knuckle or axle. Really appreciate it!
